How to Care for Your Cabinet Hardware

August 25, 2015/0 Comments/in Care Tips /by admin

Wash your hardware with a solution of warm water and a small amount of mild dish detergent; dry your hardware and the surrounding areas immediately. Brass and silver cleaners are not recommended for cleaning hardware as some of these solutions may contain harsh chemicals that can damage the finish on the hardware. Some cabinet hardware may be coated with a lacquer finish from the manufacturer, that should prevent the hardware from tarnishing.

How to Care for Your Wood Cabinets

August 25, 2015/0 Comments/in Care Tips /by admin

Wipe cabinets with a soft lint-free cloth immediately after a spill. If additional cleanup is required, use a damp cloth, rinse and dry the area immediately. The use your dish cloth is not recommended, as it may have grease on it and lead to a greasy film buildup on your cabinets.
Avoid hanging damp tea towels or dish cloths on inside or overtop of cabinet doors as moisture can cause the finish on the wood to discolor or crack.
The use of heat-producing appliances including coffee makers, kettles or toaster ovens directly beneath upper cabinets should be avoided. These items can generate damaging levels of heat and moisture; pull the appliances out from underneath the upper cabinets while they are being used.

A thorough cleaning should be done at least once a year. Use warm water and mild dish detergent. Clean a small area at a time, rinse and wipe dry immediately. Do not use products containing ammonia, bleach, wax, or silicone. Always wipe in the direction of the wood grain. Don’t forget to dust or vacuum on the top of all cabinet uppers.
Glass surfaces on cabinet doors with glass inserts should be cleaned by applying the cleaning solution on the cloth as opposed to spraying the glass surface directly. The glass cleaning solution may harm the finish on the wood frames.
There is no need to use polish or waxing products to restore the finish, these products tend to build up over time and cause a hazy, streaky or yellowed appearance, especially avoid products that are silicone based.
The use of excessive force on door or drawer systems (i.e. slamming doors or drawers) should be avoided. This will only put unnecessary strains on cabinet components and increase the likelihood of premature hardware failure.
Pay attention to the internal hardware and drawer boxes, they will not need lubrication but keeping them free of dust and dirt will keep them operating smoothly. Ensuring cabinet doors and drawers are kept closed will help prevent accidents and keep out moisture, dust and insects from the cabinet interiors.

We are thankful to Joe and Palandri Cabinets for making our home beautiful and functional, and providing an enjoyable experience to design and plan our custom cabinetry in our home. We originally had Palandri’s construct our kitchen and bathrooms when we built our house 7 years ago, and have since used their professional craftsmanship and service on other projects in our home; including a walk-up bar, and updating the cabinets in our laundry and ensuite. From problem solving design and functionality with us, to their prompt, tidy and efficient service and installation, to the friendly and personable people to work with throughout the process – it was no question in our minds that Palandri Cabinets was who we wanted to make our wishes come true. We loved everything about working with Palandri’s: the numerous options they offered in the designing process while choosing cabinet finishes and details, the capability on the computer to preview the different customized options with their knowledgeable staff, their helpful service and accessibility to answer all our questions, their reliable and excellent workmanship, and of course the quality of their beautiful finished product. We thank Palandri’s for making our home our dream home and would recommend them to anyone.

Palandri Cabinets provided us with precisely what we needed – quality craftsmanship through precision and beauty and integrity. The Palandri Cabinets team made us feel relaxed and smoothly assisted us through the process for creating an amazing set of kitchen cabinets, counter-tops, fireplace hearth, and stair treads with railings. We knew the results would be good, and the results turned out better than we ever imagined.

Palandri did all the cabinetry for a major renovation - kitchen, bathrooms, laundry storage, back-entry storage bench and family room built-in cabinetry. I couldn’t be happier with their work. Everything they did is great quality and it looks great - the standout for me is the kitchen. Joe took the design for my kitchen and made it better. I’ve been dreaming of renovating my kitchen for a long time. The end result is actually better than I could have imagined. I love working in my new kitchen - it inspires me to cook more often, because it’s just so nice to work in. So I just had them back to install built-in bookcases, which also exceed my expectations. They are perfect for my book collection and they look great. In all the work Palandri has done for me, I’ve yet to find a single thing that I would change or that I think could be improved. I highly recommend them.

Thanks Hello Joe and Palandri Cabinets,

We are so happy with our kitchen reno! This renovation has created a beautiful space for us to entertain with family and friends. From the minute we stepped into Palandri Cabinets, until the final touches were in place, Joe and his team assisted us with all the aspects. They were professional and went out of their way to ensure we were happy. Joe referred us to numerous local companies such as Pinnacle Construction, Floors By Design, and Authentic Stone to bring everything together. We would highly recommend Palandri Cabinets and their team to anyone wanting a kitchen reno and design.

Thank you again!

Hello Joe, Dionne, Renzo and all the crew at Palandri Cabinets

This thank you is coming much too late and I apologize for that. Our new kitchen is a joy!! It is a shame that we are currently in a state that I cannot entertain at all but eventually this too will pass. So many things to thank you all for!!

Dionne the design you came up with fits into the house beautifully and has modernized the whole house. Thank you also for helping me to pick colors and styles.

The quality of work and the willingness to be flexible with Paul and I was and is greatly appreciated.

Our pull out seating area is so unique and has allowed us to have the drawers we want as well as an extra seating area.

I can not tell you how much more convenient it is for me to make all my favorite Italian Pasta dishes ( Ravioli, tortellini, rosette, Lasagna, Cannelloni) on our large island. We have taken to calling it Greenland since it is so large!!.

After a day of folding tortellini my back would be aching and instead I have no pain, except in my feet:)

We are very glad that we chose to use a local company instead of going the cheaper IKEA route. It is companies like yours that keep Regina great!!.

Thank you, Grazie
